The original shot did not show what body part he had used to catch himself. I'm not saying that any official missed this call but it seems that it would have been very easy to show a replay of what had happened. I also seemed to notice a reluctance to review plays. But some of that could be based on the fact that Fox never showed a replay so I couldn't tell for sure if it was possible that a mistake was made.
I agree. In my opinion FOX needs to get out of the college football business and stick with the NFL. I am not satisfied at all with the college games they have done. I've never liked their commentators but now their producers are on my list. Leave the college games to CBS and ESPN.
